Today, dollar for dollar, is the 318 faster than the 340 ???

I guess this post might get to 1000 since the last 6 pages have about 5 people posting over and over arguing like school children. Can, can not, can, can not. One thing that has surly rose to the surface is the ignorance of the key board jockeys who ‘read it somewhere’ and who have never walked the walk.
BTW in this scenario I’ll put every dime I have in a 440 before a penny in a 318
Agree 95%. But if this was a 100% DRAG Strip build thread we would not be talking 273, 318 or even the 'LOFTY' 340. They are totally out in todays big block stroker DRAG world. I would never think of boring a 318 0.090" to get 4 inch bore when a same weight and same size 360 fits and can easily be bored and stroked to 416 or 426 if care is taken. But why stay small block when you can have a 528 stroker big block.... for the same price as a 'Special' 4 inch bore 318.
